Originally published together, The Lifted Veil and Brother Jacob have been reunited in this splendid edition of two of George Eliot's most beloved short stories. The Lifted Veil is a dark fantasy, an insightful portrait of an artist whose powers of clairvoyance are hardly a gift. In contrast, Brother Jacob is the story of conflict between two brothers and the temptation of sugar.
